ET]The three White men who chased and murdered Ahmaud Arbery were sentenced to life in prison Friday in a south Georgia courthouse for the 25-year-old's murder in 2020. Judge Timothy Walmsley sentenced Travis McMichael and Gregory McMichael to life in prison without the possibility of parole. "When he's in his 60s, older than me right now, do we still need, want a person like Travis McMichael behind bars?" Cooper-Jones hopes Travis McMichael receives a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole, she told CNN Friday. Following the verdicts, Travis McMichael's attorneys said their client is "sorry for what happened to Ahmaud Arbery," and they plan to appeal.
